Thanksgiving. Sometimes giving thanks seems like the hardest part of the day. Harder than stuffing the turkey and figuring out the family stuff. Harder than ignoring the political discussions that probably shouldn't have been broached because there's so much ugly from both directions. Harder than missing the ones who belong in the empty seats.

The journey to gratitude can seem uphill all the way, and stormy too.

At some point we all end up on this path at least for a season. (It just seems like forever...maybe. Hmm.)

It's just how life is. You know, real.

Hard.

If this is your season, this song is for you. I couldn't find a video that I liked, so I'm linking this audio with a couple of pictures.

Brenda, I cried the whole way through the song. Yes, I chose to praise Him in this storm!

I’m praying for you as you continue to through this season of deep grief. And it’s still raining...
